Data is the plural form of “datum” so this is perfectly correct. It just sounds awkward because we don’t usually phrase “a specific number of datum” like this.
You made it useless but also prevented it from the end it was predestined for.
But wait this is actually freaking me out though, it raises so many questions about the otherwise incomprehensible meaning of life as a collective whole versus personal sustenance and longevity
Imagine if one day you were given a choice: Become immortal and indestructible for eternity, unable to be harmed by anything ever again, and get to live forever.
However, in order to achieve that you must give up whatever your purpose in life is. Whatever it is that you were always meant to do, what you were supposed to contribute to the overall scheme and future of the life of the universe, your purpose… the whole reason you were even created, even born in the first place. You must give that up. You don’t know what that is. You’ll never know; But, regardless, you say yes.
Perhaps you assume you wouldn’t have made any sort of significant difference anyway. That butterfly effect theory or whatever they call it? Nah, you call bullshit. It doesn’t matter - you don’t matter, at least not to anything outside of your immediate connections - and it’ll all be fine, and you’ll just live forever with minimal (or maybe even no) consequences.
So, yay! You’re now immortal. You’ll never die or get hurt ever again. Wee!
But then, centuries and centuries later (not to mention that by this point you’ve gone through horrible heartbreak and misery and despair because every loved one you ever had, every friend you ever made, ever person you barely got to know, has passed away, died as you lived on long without them, helpless to do anything for them as you watched them perish, unable to ever go with them or ever see them again. But I digress), now, you learn you actually were important in the grand scheme of things. You were supposed to be a key factor in the world’s survival, long ago; but, because of the choice you made (immortality over individual purpose), you were never given the knowledge or awareness or resources or ability to save the world that you were always supposed to obtain, before you unknowingly made the wrongest choice to ever wrong.
Needless to say, you’ve fucked up big time.
The entire universe as we know it is destroyed soon after this horrifying revelation. It implodes, collapses in on itself, essentially forming a massive black hole or something. Stars, nebulae, galaxies, solar systems and planets, worlds and worlds of living people and things, and light-years of time and space and life, all sucked up into absolute, indefinite nothingness.
But you remain.
Just you. Floating amongst, spiraling around, rocketing through, suspended in… nothing. With a feeling of such unbelievable loneliness that your feeble brain can hardly perceive, can’t possibly hope to comprehend. Not only are you the only living thing left, you don’t even have one inanimate object to keep you company. You have literally. Nothing. And you are literally nowhere. I mean, technically, you are now the universe - if it would bring you petty comfort to think about it that way. You. Only you. With nothing, no one, nowhere. Forever. And ever. And ever.
All because you thought you didn’t matter. That you had no real, meaningful purpose. That you could never possibly make a difference.
But you did. And now look what you’ve gotten yourself into, you silly nugget. You’re gonna be pretty bored and lonely for that eternity, huh?
Or maybe it was out of selfishness. Maybe this wasn’t because you felt useless, but because you simply only cared about prolonging your own life and nothing else. Hm.
The moral here? Be selfless, and always know and remember that you matter.
Or else, one day, you might destroy the universe. And be left to suffer, and be tortured horribly and endlessly by the void of nothingness that has consumed you. With no way to escape. Ever.
Other moral because I got sidetracked from my initial point - all things considered, would you choose longevity over purpose? Immortality over meaning?
OR, IDK, MAYBE SOME IDIOT JUST LAMINATED A STUPID PIECE OF PAPER TOWEL FOR NO GOOD REASON
AND MAYBE I SHOULDNT BE LOOKING FOR THE ANSWERS TO THE MEANING OF OUR SHORT, FRAGILE LIVES IN
Because holy hell no one will get that through their thick heads. Vince/Vendetta/Vincent are different from Purple Guy, aren’t FNaF characters ((One of them isnt even a CHARACTER TO BEGIN WITH)) And im sick of seeing people assume this daily.
Vinny - My hallucination
Vince ( Vincent Heliotrope ) - The protagonist of a video game called ‘Night Terror’ where you enter the minds of children and defeat their phobias
Vendetta ( Vendan Krishnan ) - A butler/body guard that works for Miss Mahogany in a mansion
Purple guy - A NAMELESS purple SPRITE that killed children and DIED in a suit AND belongs to Scott Cawthon
My English teacher purposely failed all her seniors for 3rd quarter to scare us into coming to school and working hard
Yeah that’s great
I got grounded and had anxiety attacks
Some kid probably got beat
Other kids are just gonna stop caring
You should be fired
since posting this last night ive gotten quite a few messages from people whose teachers have also done this and it resulted in them being beaten by their legal guardians
like
teachers need to think of the consequences of their god damn actions. this is not okay.
Okay but tampering with a student’s grade is HELLA ILLEGAL. And you should REPORT THE SHIT OUT OF THAT TEACHER!
You know what? Fuck the last generation. Seriously. Last generation makes this generation feel like shit for being average. They beat this generation and make this generation feel inadequate for not being better than everybody else while also pulling stupid stunts like this. And then they criticise this generation for having anxiety or being so scared to fail that we never even try anything new.
All the problems of this generation are because of how shitty the last generation has treated us.
^ This, more or less.
My parents and grandparents and family never did this but I know too many people whose family DID.
I lost my computer for six months because I was making usually an 83 in calculus rather than 85 and it didn’t help that in study hall I was placed in a room for sculpting and they won’t let us go to other classes to get the help we need.
I was punished for being more than average but less than the best in fucking calculus.

yes because being able to legally smoke an herb completely negates the fact that the possible republican candidates are racist homophobes and will try to force christianity on everyone in the country.
Or the fact that the republican candidate probably won’t legalize weed country wide either
AAAAALRIGHTY let’s just go ahead and nip this one in the bud right now okay
the “Tadashi will come back as the villain” “rumours” were started by this article from a while back that didn’t really pick up traction until this whole “Stan Lee confirms Big Hero 6 sequel” thing
if you actually read the full thing rather than just the clickbait headline you’ll see that the entire argument being presented is literally 100% speculation and theories by someone with absolutely zero affiliation with either Marvel or Disney that managed to somehow get interpreted as official “rumours” because of how badly the headline was written
he also seems certain that Tadashi will come back as Sunfire, despite Marvel not owning the rights to Sunfire because he’s a part of the the X-Men, which is owned by 20th Century Fox
this exact same thing happened around this time last year with all those initial Frozen 2 “rumours” about Elsa getting a boyfriend and look how that turned out
can we all just take the time to actually read shit instead of spreading around misinformation
TL;DR: NONE OF THIS IS EVEN REMOTELY OFFICIAL, IT’S ALL BASICALLY FANFICTION WRITTEN BY A FAN THAT HAS BEEN MISINTERPRETED AS FACT BECAUSE OF THE POORLY WORDED CLICKBAIT HEADLINE
So what happens if two people who have promised their firstborn to separate witches have a child together? Do they both just pop up in the nursery and have a custody battle?
I need a book about a little girl whose parents had promised their firstborn to different witches and the only way that both ends of the deal were fulfilled was for them to have joint custody of the child.
I love it!
And then the witches, forced to share a cottage while raising their joint stolen child, fall in love…
